After spending 15+ hours int he car, I have picked up on a couple things.
1) high pitched(low volume) whistle coming from somewhere???its not the windshield wipers--think maybe sunroof area...does anyone know what i am talking about
2) over bumps, there is a rattle in the rear decklid...could it be seatbelt housing in the decklid?

Both of these items have been covered in the recent past.
1) Windshield needs to be re-sealed
2) There are a couple of us (me included) that have the rear deck rattle. Mine seems to be coming from the area where the rear stop light meets the headliner. I'm bringing my car in to service in 2 weeks to fix. There is a member in the UK that isolated the sound to the same area. Yours might not be in the exact area but you are not alone. My suggestion is to make sure you can duplicate the sound and let BMW deal with it.
